2019 Mitsubishi L200 2.4L Diesel · DV19 NFN

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, with the most recent MOT test on 2025-07-10 at 85,524 miles showing no critical defects. However, the record reveals a pattern of minor tyre wear and surface-level issues that have persisted over multiple tests. The trend suggests stable maintenance, as no major mechanical failures were recorded in the last three years. The latest test did flag two tyres with perishing sidewalls, indicating potential replacement may be needed soon. The mileage of 85,524 miles over seven years equates to an average of 12,218 miles annually, which is above the typical usage for this age of vehicle. Notably, the gap between the 2023-04-14 test (61,339 miles) and the 2024-06-29 test (73,289 miles) shows a jump of 11,950 miles in just over a year, suggesting periods of heavy use. This rapid accumulation could contribute to increased wear on components such as brakes, suspension, and tyres, particularly given the recurring tyre damage noted in earlier tests. Recurring tyre issues, including perishing and cracking, highlight the need for a thorough inspection of the current tyres and their condition. The brake pads were also flagged as wearing thin in 2022, and while subsequent tests showed no further issues, it is advisable to check the current state of the braking system. Suspension bushes and coil springs should also be examined, as high mileage can lead to wear in these areas. Structural integrity appears intact, but buyers should verify for signs of corrosion, especially around the chassis and underbody.
